Meet Mantra, a street artist from Metz, France with a unique point of view and a special talent. Through years of practice, Mantra has developed the skills to work on any manner of canvases, surfaces of varying materials and sizes, making him a prolific artist on the streets, and one of the most popular avant-garde artists in Europe currently.
